- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudo
in Windows.
- No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

Funnily enough with how popular and broad the wiki has gotten some people are just searching “[problem statement] linux” and having the top results be arch wiki links so the idea of an arch manual being handed to someone new isn’t that far off
I once solved a problem with my hackintosh thanks to arch wiki.
I solved my {Fedora,Debian,Arch,Ubuntu} Linux problems thanks to the wiki, but yours... just wow.
Honestly I've always been a Debian based guy but thought I would try Manjaro to see how an Arch based desktop would work.
First distro I've ever run that worked absolutely, completely 100% out of the box and I've been a Linux desktop user for over 20 years. No proprietary drivers, graphics or networking issues, literally 10 minute setup. I would recommend it to a beginner for sure.
